More than 60 young women and men participated in the Literary Salon which took place at the National Gallery Jakarta. The initiative was related to the concept of "Nora's sisters" where the idea is to use Ibsen's plays to promote debate about women's rights and gender equality. In addition to being part of the panel with three Indonesian Ibsen connoisseurs from different walks of life, Juni Dahr played excerpts from Ibsen's play "A Doll's House" and "The Lady from the Sea".

Ibsen is part of the fixed curriculum of the faculty of performing arts at "Jakarta Institute of art" and at several international schools. The Literary Salon generated debate about the need for a national strategy on culture, the need for more writers for the theater, on challenging social conventions on forms of cohabitation, on marriage and the difference between love and ownership, dignity, and freedom with responsibility.

At the Jakarta Institute of Art, Institut Kesenian Jakarta (IKJ), June Dahr held a master class, the transfer of experience to the younger actors, for students at the faculty of performing arts.
